        <h2>Here's a time line of Dr.Borlaug's life:</h2>

            <li>
                <strong>1933</strong> - Leaves his family's farm to attend

                program known as the "National Youth Administration"

                <strong>1935</strong> - Has to stop school and save up
                more money. Works in the Civilian Conservation Corps,
                helping starving Americans. "I saw how food changed them",
                he said. "All of this left scars on me."

            <li>

                Gibson. Gets laid off due to budget cuts. Inspired by
                Elvin Charles Stakman, he returns to school study under
                Stakman, who teaches him about breeding pest-resistent
                plants.
            </li>
            <li>
                <strong>1941</strong> - Tries to enroll in the military
                after the Pearl Harbor attack, but is rejected. Instead,
                the military asked his lab to work on waterproof glue,
                DDT to control malaria, disinfectants, and other applied
                science.
            </li>
            <li>
                <strong>1942</strong> - Receives a Ph.D. in Genetics and
                Plant Pathology
            </li>
            <li>
                <strong>1944</strong> - Rejects a 100% salary increase from
                Dupont, leaves behind his pregnant wife, and flies to
                Mexico to head a new plant pathology program. Over the
                next 16 years, his team breeds 6,000 different strains
                of disease resistent wheat - including different varieties
                for each major climate on Earth.
            </li>
            <li>
                <strong>1945</strong> - Discovers a way to grown wheat twice
                each season, doubling wheat yields
            </li>
            <li>
                <strong>1953</strong>-Born in Cresco,lowa

                <strong>1962</strong> - Visits Delhi and brings his 
                high-yielding strains of wheat to the Indian subcontinent in
                 time to help mitigate mass starvation due to a rapidly
                  expanding population
            </li>

                dramatically increase their maize and sorghum yields
            </li>
            <li>
                <strong>1984</strong> - becomes a distinguished professor
                 at Texas A&M University
            </li>
            <li>
                <strong>2005</strong> - states "we will have to double the 
                world food supply by 2050." Argues that genetically modified 
                crops are the only way we can meet the demand, as we run out 
                of arable land. Says that GM crops are not inherently dangerous
                 because "we've been genetically modifying plants and animals for
                  a long time. Long before we called it science, people were 
                  selecting the best breeds."
            </li>
            <li>
                <strong>2009</strong> - dies at the age of 95.

                contribution that one man's towering intellect, persistence and
                scientific vision can make to human peace and progress."
